calivintage: artichoke hearts

last week, i went on a little photo shoot for the style resolutions series on the modcloth blog. we headed out on a stormy day to try to get some shots, but unfortunately, we only got a few snaps before it started to rain. and i couldn’t remove my hand from my head for fear of losing my hat in the wind! but this was my outfit for the day. almost all vintage except for my jeffrey campbell heels and my trusty satchel. i’ve been meaning to get back to wearing more vintage lately, but with a very busy schedule, it can be hard to make it out to the thrift shops, especially because it takes a lot of digging to find just one prized possession. but i’m trying to remember to take more time to do the things i love, thrifting included!

in fact, you can read more about it on our latest modcloth post, style resolutions: round two! and a very special thank you to kristin cofer for taking these photos!

  1. Love windy days, but it’s true that if you a wearing a hat it stops being fun pretty soon. Lovely outfit, like the colours, the deep brown with a bit of dark green. Perfect for a windy and wet day :)

  2. I love this outfit! It’s so casual but also not. The patterned skirt is lovely : )
    I’m a thrift-aholic so I love thrifted/vintage finds – drop by if you have time.

  3. Guapísima. Esta blusa siempre te ha sentado bien. Me gustan especialmente abrochadas hasta arriba como tu las sueles llevar. Pero con el jersey encima estás de 10. Si tenías que aguantar con la mano el sombrero para que no volara, pues pejor. Porque el sombrero da al conjunto un toque especial. No comento mucho pero te sigo. Me encantan tus andanzas.
    besos desde Barcelona,

  4. Seriously in awe of this outfit. I love love love this skirt. I adore it. I love it. I worship it. Haha Gossip Girl reference. I love artichoke, I want to eat artichoke! It’s just such a whimsical and delightful print. Also, where is this location? And let’s meet and do a shoot soon! I’ll be gone for ten days for Spring Break, but when I’m back? :)

  5. well this outfit is beautiful!!

    Is it just me or do you not get as many comments as you used to? That’s sad if that’s the truth. You deserve it because you have always had some of the greatest entries ever.
